Mia Bezzi, BACP

Mia Bezzi helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting pressures, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, grief and trauma. She also supports those dealing with sleep problems, anger, ADHD challenges, compassion fatigue and major life changes. Mia welcomes discussion of attachment, abandonment, body image, codependency and family concerns. She offers a calm, empathetic presence to begin difficult conversations.

Mia has eight years of practice working with people from a wide range of backgrounds. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience has shaped a straightforward, down-to-earth approach to counselling.

In sessions she focuses on the person and their experience. The person-centred approach puts the client’s priorities at the centre of each meeting. Mia combines this with psychodynamic thinking to help people notice patterns that repeat in relationships and behaviour.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural tools to help with worry, panic and low mood, and uses mindfulness exercises when clients want practical ways to calm the mind. Techniques are chosen to match what the individual needs, not to fit a label.

Mia aims for a steady, unhurried pace. Conversations are relaxed and practical. Tasks between sessions may be suggested, such as simple breathing practices or small behavioural experiments to try out new ways of coping.

If someone wants to explore how past experiences shape current feelings, or to build day-to-day skills for handling stress, Mia supports that work. Her style blends listening with focused strategies so people can make gradual, manageable change.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Mia commonly uses client-centred therapy, which focuses on what matters to the individual and creates space for them to lead the conversation. This approach helps when someone needs a listening ear and a non-judgemental place to work through feelings.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, a practical method that looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours together. CBT is useful for managing anxiety, panic, low mood and unhelpful worry by practising small experiments and new thinking skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mia will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and help shape a plan together. That collaborative process means methods can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat offers brief check-ins, and messaging allows for ongoing written reflection. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and daily life.
